I was trying to do a big "yum update" having just incorporated the
"development" channel, and yum failed due to dependency issues. But
the error message was unhelpful because it didn't indicate whether an
already installed package had a dependency that was being broken by
updating a different package or whether the package I'm trying to
upgrade to has dependencies that are unsatisfiable.

Here's the error output:

Package abiword-plugins-impexp needs libcrlayeng.so.1, this is not
available.
Package abiword-plugins-impexp needs libcroco.so.1, this is not available.
Package abiword-plugins-impexp needs libcrseleng.so.2, this is not
available.

Now, does the current version of abiword-plugins-impexp require
libcroco.so.1 and the new version of the libcroco package has, say,
libcroco.so.2? Or does the new version of abiword-plugins-impexp
require a new version of libcroco which is unavailable?

What would be awesome is if it would read:

Package abiword-plugins-impexp (installed) needs libcroco.so.1, so I
cannot upgrade package libcroco

for the first case and

Package abiword-plugins-impexp needs libcroco.so.1, this is not available

for the second case.

Thanks!
